Dawiso Help programmatic access

Dawiso Help provides two programmatic interfaces for accessing documentation content outside of the web browser:

• MCP server — enables AI assistants (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and others) to search and retrieve articles through the Model Context Protocol.
• Raw Markdown endpoint — serves individual articles as plain Markdown files, suitable for scripts, pipelines, or any tool that consumes text.

Both interfaces serve the current release of the documentation and require no authentication.

Raw Markdown endpoint

Every published article is available as a plain Markdown file at a predictable URL:

https://help.dawiso.com/{version}/md/{slug}.md

Parameter	Description	Example
version	Release version or actual for the current release	2026.1, actual
slug	Article slug (visible in the browser address bar)	error-codes

Example request:

curl https://help.dawiso.com/actual/md/error-codes.md

The response is the article body in Markdown format with Content-Type: text/markdown; charset=utf-8. The article title is included as an H1 heading at the top of the response.

MCP server

The Dawiso Help MCP server allows AI assistants to search, list, and retrieve documentation articles. It implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and is available at:

https://help.dawiso.com/mcp

Connecting from Claude Desktop

Add the following to your Claude Desktop configuration file (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dawiso-help": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://help.dawiso.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

The configuration file location depends on your operating system:

OS	Path
macOS	~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows	%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

After saving the file, restart Claude Desktop. The Dawiso Help tools appear in the tool list when starting a new conversation.

Connecting from Claude Code

Add the following to your project’s .mcp.json file or to your global Claude Code settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dawiso-help": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://help.dawiso.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Connecting from Cursor

Open Cursor settings, navigate to MCP, and add a new server:

• Type: streamable-http
• URL: https://help.dawiso.com/mcp

Connecting from other MCP clients

Any MCP-compatible client can connect using the Streamable HTTP transport. Point the client to:

POST https://help.dawiso.com/mcp

The server follows the MCP Streamable HTTP specification. The initial request must be a JSON-RPC initialize call without a session ID. Subsequent requests include the mcp-session-id header returned during initialization.

Available MCP tools

The server exposes four tools:

search_docs

Full-text search across all documentation articles. Returns up to 20 results sorted by relevance.

Example prompt: “Search Dawiso Help for articles about data lineage configuration.”

get_article

Retrieve a complete article by its slug, including the full Markdown content.
